This is a fabulous nursery. My little boy loves coming to Storytime, he always has a smile on his face either dropping him off or picking him up in the baby room. If he's happy we are happy. Glad we chose this nursery.
My son ahs been going to the nursery for 12 months now. From being in the Rainbow Room to now the Pre-School Room, he has developed so much. He is more social, making new friends, learning about different times of the year like autumn, collecting conkers and leaves. Involved with the Olympics, making meals and doing their own events. He knows his shapes, colours and is better at counting now. The staff are always helpful and are really nice.
After looking at various nurseries in the local area of St Helens, my first choice was Storytime Day Nursery. As a social worker, I have high expectations of what a nursery should provide a child, given the insight I have with my profession. The staff are professional but give a personal approach with families and the care they provide my 11-month-old baby is second to none. I highly recommend any parent considering a Private Nursery to visit Storytime and see what excellent caring staff are available to care for your/their little one.
I'm happy with the care that's provided by the nursery nurses.
Storytime is very welcoming. Staff are always positive and friendly. My son loves coming and has come on so much. His social skills and behaviour has improved so much already and he has made some new friends and talk about the staff when at home, also says what he does and he always has something new to say. He has built bonds already with his key-worker. The garden is his favourite part of the nursery.
Very happy with the nursery. Staff are very helpful and nothing is too much trouble. My daughter has developed noticeably since starting.
My son has been at Storytime since he was 6 months old - all the staff who have looked after him have been excellent, caring and have always been brilliant with him. My son has come on leaps and bounds thanks to everyone at Storytime!
My son loves coming to nursery here, as did my daughter 3 years ago. It was our first choice nursery for both of them as it is fantastic!
It is a fantastic place for your children to learn and develop. The staff are great and very helpful. Would definitely recommend to any other mums.
The staff are always cheerful and nothing is ever too much trouble. I chose Storytime, after a recommendation, after my first visit 8 months ago, I just got such a good vibe compared to others I'd visited. The induction sessions were great and they worked with my son's individual needs for naps and comfort. He loves going to nursery and gets to do lots of wonderful and stimulating things throughout his three days there. I recommended Storytime to a friend of mine and after one view she now sends her daughter there too. It's a friendly, happy and bright environment and I'd recommend it to anyone.
My daughter has attended this nursery for around 2 years and she absolutely loves going in and has lots of fun. We are very happy with this nursery and would recommend to friends and family. The staff are brilliant with the kids and they are all smiling whenever I go in.
My son started at Storytime Private Day Nursery at 8 months old and will be leaving this summer to go to school. Storytime Private Day Nursery have been excellent throughout his nursery journey and have encouraged his development at every stage. All the staff have been amazing and we will miss them very much. I would recommend this nursery to anyone who needs to leave their child in a safe and happy environment whist they go to work.
The nursery staff are excellent and make you feel welcome straight away. My child is very shy but has thrived since attending Storytime. The staff also cater for intolerance's and allergies and work with you to help make the best experience for your child.
Great place for kids, staff are warm and friendly. Would recommend to family and friends.
My two girls have been at this nursery since April/May 2013 and I can honestly say that this is the best nursery around in my experience. The staff are so friendly and welcoming and always on hand to help, listen, re-assure and update on your child's progress. My girls settled in really well straight away and have loved every second of their time here.
My son, 4, runs into the nursery. It is a joy to watch him engaged with each and everyone of the staff at Storytime,.
I was very worried about my son starting at pre school but all the staff at Storytime answered all of my questions and eased all my worries. They made him feel so safe and welcome that he settled in really quickly. I always feel involved in his learning and I'm always well informed of what he's been up to. I could not feel more content with my son being there and I'm confident that I made the right choice in his pre school. Overall I would highly recommend Storytime, wonderful friendly staff and great facilities.
All the staff are friendly and caring towards the children. They have brought my daughter on so much from being a baby & taught her valuable skills. She loves Nursery and is happy and at ease in the friendly environment. I will be placing my son in this Nursery soon too.
Highly recommended!
From day one the baby room staff settled him in and put my mind at rest by taking photos of him having fun whilst I was gone, and giving us a daily diary of his activities and diet - they eat really well!
The care he receives is excellent, I cannot rate the staff highly enough. My son loves them and that says it all for me.
My twin nieces attend the nursery and have done so for over 12 months. They have advanced so much since joining. The staff are friendly, caring and really good at communicating with us as a family and making us feel really involved in our children's education. There are always activities and educational things taking place and there is always an atmosphere of fun! I would highly recommend the nursery and can't speak any more highly of them.
